ALTER BRIDGE AB III (2010 Japanese-issue 14-track CD album - Alter Bridge return with their long-awaited 3rd studio album 'AB III'. So what is that message? For the first two albums, the theme seemed to be about new beginnings and the struggle tostay positive in the face of adversity. However, on this third album, Tremonti tells us that while all the Alter Bridge members share a common bond musically, their views on many subjects differ. 'We all believe different things,' he says. 'In fact, the overall theme of this record is Myles' struggle with faith. He has trouble believing in anything spiritual, and he really puts that out there...'. One of AB III's many high points is the song 'Words Darker Than Their Wings', which refers to the very real dilemma faced by Kennedy when it comes to reconciling the tangible and spiritual worlds. In fact, 'AB III' is a record of stark contrasts. Produced by the renowned Michael 'Elvis' Baskette, the album offers a feast of listening experiences, includes a bonus track for the Japanese pressing. Picture sleeve with obi-strip)
